{"cve":"CVE-2026-118988","nvd":{"published":"2026-10-30T13:18:31.647","modified":"2026-10-30T13:18:31.647","status":"Received","description":"CallBackery versions before 0.60.1 for Perl let unauthenticated clients read the POD of any file via path traversal in the /doc route.\n\nEvery CallBackery application mounts its documentation plugin at /doc, ahead of any session check. The route passes the requested name to Pod::Simple::Search->find without validation. find splits the name on \"::\" and joins the parts into a file path, so a name such as \"..::..::..::etc::motd\" escapes @INC.\n\nAny file the server process can read is reachable. Only POD is rendered, but a file with a POD directive and no \"=cut\" is POD to the end of the file.","cvss_v4":null,"cvss_v3":null,"cwes":["CWE-22"],"references":["https://github.com/oetiker/callbackery/commit/128efe804fde41bba9633fe00dc94e30f12087fb.patch","https://metacpan.org/release/OETIKER/CallBackery-0.60.1/source/CHANGES"],"products":[],"source":"nvd","synced_at":"2026-10-30T13:47:47.119061695+00:00"},"epss":null,"kev":null,"osv":[],"attribution":["This product uses the NVD API but is not endorsed or certified by the NVD.","EPSS scores: FIRST Exploit Prediction Scoring System, https://www.first.org/epss","Known exploited vulnerabilities: CISA Known Exploited Vulnerabilities Catalog, https://www.cisa.gov/known-exploited-vulnerabilities-catalog","Package advisories: OSV (https://osv.dev), from the GitHub Advisory Database, PyPA, Go, RustSec and other ecosystem databases, under CC-BY 4.0 or CC0","CVE records: the CVE Program's CVE List (https://www.cve.org), under its terms of use (https://www.cve.org/Legal/TermsOfUse).
